Project MOT

With the approach of Pesach, this is a good time to remember that much of our freedom in the United States depends on our military personnel, including Jews, who serve in harm’s way.

Thanks to Project MOT, Pesach holiday packages were sent to deployed Jewish troops, and here is one thank you that Project MOT received this year:

Dear Project MOT,

Thank you for the wonderful Pesach Care Package, I really appreciate it! I especially loved the kosher jelly fruit shaped candies. My Bubbie had those out at Passover every year and they brought back wonderful memories.

Thank you for your love and support to Jewish troops deployed overseas. You remind us why we chose to serve.

There are sundry of repute online pharmacies. However others aren’t drugstores at all. Some patients know that medicaments are made to help us, but they can damage patients if taken incorrectly. Have a question about Cialis and http://buycialisonline-info.com? Certainly it isn’t all. The most common sexual problems in men are ED and ejaculation disorders. This product tell more about the evaluation of erectile dysfunction and buy cialis online. A medical review about buy cialis show that men’s most common sexual dysfunction is ED. Without fail, you must check with your physician to see whether one of these remedies is a suitable choice for you. The very first matter make sure that when you purchase medicaments like Cialis online, you get real preparation. Some of the sites sell online really hazardous fakes.

Dear Project MOT,

Thank you for the wonderful, thoughtful care package, I really appreciate it.

I’m writing you from Kabul, Afghanistan where I am an Aide de Camp to a Brigadier General in charge of rebuilding the Afghanistan Justice System and also overseeing the fighting of corruption, prevention of extra judicial killings and prosecution of gross violations of human rights.

Despite 14 years of war, the Taliban are still active and we, as the NATO coalition, are doing everything we can to ensure that the fledgling Ghani administration is able to continue helping the people of Afghanistan.

Thank you for your support to myself and other Jewish soldiers currently deployed. I hope you have a very Happy Hanukkah!

Sincerely,

Micah

First Lieutenant, US Army
Aide de Camp

This Pesach I had the privilege of receiving two requests through this site for help with getting Pesach food to Jewish military personnel at combat outposts.

The mother of one — a female combat medic in an outpost in Iraq — and the other himself — an enlisted man at an outpost in Afghanistan — asked for help in connecting with Jewish chaplains and getting Pesach supplies.

Thanks to Joan Rimmon of ProjectMOT and Ava Hamburger of Kosher Troops both of these Jewish military personnel should be receiving (“should” because timely delivery to combat outposts is not a sure thing) Pesach supplies.

We are writing to you because of your past support of ProjectMOT. As you may know we sent almost 100 holiday care packages to our deployed Jewish troops last year. This year for Passover we sent 114. All were well received and enjoyed by our brave heroes in their various parts of the world.

If you have a deployed serviceman or woman who will be away during the holidays, please send us their military address so we can send them a care package.

We are now preparing the High Holiday packages which we will be sending at the end of August, and have orders for 80 at this point. We already have blank greeting cards for them to send home, some candy and cookies, but we really want to make these boxes special.

Joan Glanz Rimmon of Los Angeles will be the guest on the April 21st edition of the BlogTalkRadio show YourMilitaryLife.com. She will be discussing the volunteer project Operation Gratitude and its Jewish offshoot Project MOT. Here’s Joan’s description of the two groups:

Operation Gratitude was begun in March of 2003 just two weeks before the first shots were fired in Iraq. Carolyn Blashek, a Jewish attorney who tried to join the U.S. Army after 9/11 and a volunteer at the local USO, met a soldier at LAX who was returning to the war zone.

He told her he had been on emergency leave to bury his mother and that his wife had left him and his only child had died as an infant. He had no one in his life. Then he said: “I’m going back over there. I don’t think I’ll make it back this time, but it really doesn’t matter because no one would even care.” Carolyn cared and Operation Gratitude was born that night.

Starting in her living room, we now are bursting at the seams at the California Army National Guard Armory in Van Nuys.

Since its beginning Operation Gratitude has shipped over 400,000 care packages to our military of all races, creeds and colors deployed in any hostile region in the world, including Iraq, Afghanistan, Kosovo, Israel (guarding the American Embassy), and on ships at sea.

Last January (2008) when our 300,000th package was ready to deliver, Carolyn and our operations manager, Charlie Othold, were invited to come to Iraq to present that package directly to the recipient. While there Carolyn met several of the chaplains, and the rest is Project MOT history (see below).

I became involved in May of 2004 in Operation Gratitude and am a supervisor in charge of sending blank greeting cards and stationery for the military personnel to use to send home and to friends.

Carolyn contacted Marsha Roseman and me to see if we wanted to do something for our Jewish servicemen and women. Operation Gratitude has many Jewish volunteers, and we got together with about 10 of them to start our work.

Our first packages were sent last Passover (2008) for about nine personnel. We worked mainly through the chaplains who told us how many packages would be needed for their particular units.

By Rosh Hashanah we were up to 27 packages and at Hanukkah we sent 44 boxes. This Passover we will be shipping over 100 boxes. We seem to be growing in leaps and bounds.

We have based on packages on our experience with Operation Gratitude, whose boxes are the favorite among the troops because we include many items that the troops really appreciate (not just food, although that is included as well). For instance, Craig Taubman has donated his CDs of Jewish music; AlephJudaica donated greeting cards for the troops to send home and some lovely leather kipot; various kosher markets around Los Angeles have given us canned goods and candies; and our small group of Operation Gratitude volunteers puts up the money to mail the packages.
Our main goal is to get donations of items that the Jewish soldiers would like to have during a specific holiday period. We are next getting ready for the High Holiday packages with lots of shanah tovah cards and will be getting some jars of honey. Donations for mailing the packages are also welcome.

Both Project MOT and Operation Gratitude are programs that will make the lives of our brave heroes in harms’ way more pleasant.
